Description

Have the adventure of a lifetime when you choose this guided tour of the Langjokull glacier and its natural ice caves in one of the largest glacier monster trucks in the world. Travelers seeking an unforgettable experience exploring some of Iceland’s most impressive natural wonders should book this tour today. 

Langjokull glacier, located only a few hours from Reykjavik, is the second-largest glacier in Iceland. It is popular for glacier tours due to its stunning scenery and abundance of natural ice caves. 

Your tour begins at the upper Gullfoss parking space, where you will meet your group and guide before boarding the monster truck. Be sure to arrive early, so you have time to see the magnificent Gullfoss waterfall, one of the magical attractions along the Golden Circle route!

After a short drive in the comfortable transfer bus, you will reach the Geldingafell base camp at the foot of the Langjokull glacier. During the drive, you can enjoy stunning views of the Icelandic highlands as you listen to a playlist of Icelandic music and entertaining stories and information from your guide. 

At the Geldingafell base camp, it is time to board the massive glacier monster truck. This specialized vehicle is one of the biggest glacier monster trucks in the world, allowing a comfortable ride over even rough terrain as you are transported to the far reaches of the incredible glacier. 

The tour operators search the glacier for the best natural ice caves every season. During the summer, warm weather can change the glacier, and the ice caves will melt and reform in different locations. Luckily, your guide knows where the best caves are!

You can get out of the monster truck to explore when you reach the ice cave. You will be amazed by the vivid-colored ice and unique, natural formations as you walk through the cave.

Depending on the weather, you will make another stop for further activities. Walk along the massive glacier and take amazing photographs from the viewpoints.

After your incredible adventure on the ice, you will return to the base camp to catch the transfer bus back to Gullfoss. The tour takes around four hours and is fantastic for travelers looking for a more accessible way to explore the Langjokull glacier.

Be sure to dress in warm, waterproof layers for your excursion. Sturdy, waterproof hiking boots are a must for walking on the glacier. 

The monster truck glacier tour is suitable for children aged six and older. It is a good option for those with a short amount of time or who aren’t able to hike the glacier. Please note that it is not wheelchair or stroller friendly, and no infant seats are available. 

Travelers seeking an unforgettable experience exploring the Langjokull glacier and ice caves should book this monster truck tour today. Check availability by choosing a date.
